View the pretty chalets with flower balconies and painted facades as you head to the famed Passion Playhouse to take your seat for this "once-in-a-lifetime" event. The history of the Passion Play at Oberammergau goes back to 1634, when the village of Oberammergau was miraculously saved from the ravages of the Black Death. Since that date, the play has been performed every ten years on the decade. There will be ample time for hunting down a hand carved wooden figurine, a special craft from this area, or perhaps a cuckoo clock. Continue to Garmisch for overnight. (B,L,D)
